A Lumped-Parameter Model for Nonlinear Waves in Graphene

Abstract: A lumped-parameter nonlinear spring-mass model which takes into account the third-order elastic stiffness constant is considered for modeling the free and forced axial vibrations of a graphene sheet with one fixed end and one free end with a mass attached. It is demonstrated through this simple model that, in free vibration, within certain initial energy level and depending upon its length and the nonlinear elastic constants, that there exist bounded periodic solutions which are non-sinusoidal, and that for ea… Show more

“…Through our results, we demonstrate that the second order material constant D is an important factor in modeling the patterns of graphene in vibrations and stability of electrostatic pull-in devices just as reported in [9] for mechanically operated devices [22].…”

“…Pull-in voltages are calculated for different areas of the plate at two different gap sizes. The analysis of phase diagrams demonstrates that, for high levels of the initial energy, some unknown behaviors of the solutions are discovered which are distinct from those found in [9] which only considers mechanically forced vibrations. Numerical solutions of some periodic waves have been presented and the values of periods and frequencies for three different values of length of the graphene are shown.…”

“…As is well-known, the field of modeling complex materials has been expanding rapidly in recent years, with the aim of understanding the dynamical response of metallic structures used in mechanical engineering applications. In this regard, I have been studying recently with Dr. Kostas Kaloudis and Dr. Thomas Oikonomou [34]1-D Hamiltonian lattices of particles interacting via 1) graphene type interactions [28][29][30], 2) Hollomon's power-law of materials exhibiting "work hardening" [31][32][33]. Earlier studies have focused on the dynamics of single oscillators governed by suitable nonanalytic potentials describing the motion in the above two cases.…”
